Ellen Tate (formerly Ellen Tranton) seeking information about her mother Sueky Tranton and siblings

MR. EDITOR - I am anxious to learn the whereabouts of my mother; her name was Sueky Tranton, and used to belong to the widow tranton in South Alabama. She lived at the Cross Roads, near Bridgeville, Alabama. She fell to Mrs. Mary Umphrey. My mother's husband was named Bob Tranton. Mother had six children. One, Francis Tranton, went to Jim Tranton; I saw her during the war, but have not seen her since. Brother Gabriel died in this county. One sister, Arrene Tranton, was sold to Mrs. Betty Steanson. Next sister was named Catherine, and she went with Mary Ellen Tranton. I was at that time Ellen Tranton, and Nancy Hines bought me or I fell to her. I then went to Noxubee, Miss, 12 miles from Macon, Miss, and 3 miles from Memphis, Ala. That is the last time I heard from them. I am now at Marvell, Ark., and the wife of Rev. A. S. Tate. Any one knowing their whereabouts will please address the pastor, Rev. Albert Tate.
